Recommended Posts

IMAGINARY PANTS "CHANNELS/SEACLIFF" 7 INCH OUT NOW.


Words don't justice to describe the great emotions I feel about being a part of this release. For starters it feels great to document more of the great music that my friend Jon Manning (Sandy City, Blanket Truth, Lost Sound Tapes) creates but it feels even greater knowing that I am also helping document music that the other half of Imaginary Pants, Rose Melberg, has created. To put things in perspective, as of this writing I am 35 years old and I have been listening to music the Rose has written/recorded with her various projects (Tiger Trap, The Softies, Go Sailor, Gaze, as well under her own name) since I was a 16 sixteen your old indie rock kid in high school. If a past version of me got knowledge from the future about this release he (I) would be freaking out. Fanboy nonsense aside, it feels great to simply document great music by people such as Rose and Jon who have an impeccable track record of being a part of some of the best indie pop music my ears have ever been fortunate enough to hear. "Channels/Seacliff" is a two song 7 inch that is an indie pop lover's dream come true with an old school large center hole (a first for Rok Lok!) and it is limited to an edition of 500 copies. It is packed in a full color fold over cover. It is $6 PPD. Listen here http://roklokrecords.bandcamp.com/album/channels-seacliff [roklokrecords.bandcamp.com] »

SWIM IGNORANT FIRE "BELLY OF THE WHALE" CASSETTE OUT NOW


Chicago based Swim Ignorant Fire is a project of the creative, talented mind of Stephen Holliger, that explores the dynamics of ambient swells and post rock inspired soundscapes. The layers contained within each song have an organic drone about it that always has a concise yet subdued guitar melody lingering about with the occasional burst of noise. This is an absolute beautiful, hypnotizing C-45 with full color labels on top of black clam shells and packaged in a black norelco case and full color glossy artwork. Full color posters are available for a limited time. An edition of 65 of home dubbed cassettes. $5 PPD in the US
